Anchor Plates / Bearing Plates

Anchor Plates / Bearing Plates are essential components in Anchor Pre-Stressed and Post-Tensioning Grip Systems, designed to distribute and transfer prestressing forces safely into the concrete structure. Prestressed anchorage systems consist of wedges, anchor heads, and bearing plates that work together to transfer post-tensioning force from steel tendons to the structure. Bearing plates act as the primary load-distribution element, ensuring that the concentrated force from the anchorage is spread over a larger concrete surface area.

A bearing plate is typically used along with anchorage components to transfer the prestressing force effectively into the concrete, preventing localized stress and damage. These plates help reduce stress concentration in the anchorage zone, improving structural safety, durability, and overall performance of prestressed systems. Anchor bearing plates transfer anchoring force into the concrete and help generate the required prestress within the structure.

They are designed to work with anchor heads, wedges, and reinforcement elements, forming a complete anchorage system for efficient load transmission. The use of properly designed bearing plates ensures uniform load distribution, minimizing the risk of cracking, deformation, or failure in concrete structures. Anchor plates also function as structural connection elements that enable secure fastening and load transfer between components in construction systems.

Manufactured from high-strength steel or alloy materials, these plates are capable of withstanding heavy loads, repeated stress cycles, and harsh environmental conditions. They are widely used in bridges, buildings, retaining structures, and infrastructure projects where safe and efficient transfer of prestressing forces is critical. Sigma Fasteners manufactures, suppliers and exporters high-quality Anchor Plates / Bearing Plates in India that ensure uniform load distribution, enhanced durability, and reliable performance in modern prestressed and post-tensioning applications.
